VIBRO METER VM600 MPC4 200-510-071-113 Machinery Protection Card – VM600 Series
When a critical rotating machine — a gas turbine, steam turbine, or large compressor — loses its vibration protection layer, the consequences are not merely operational disruptions. Bearing failures cascade into catastrophic rotor damage, unplanned shutdowns cost hundreds of thousands of dollars per hour, and in worst cases, personnel safety is compromised. The VIBRO METER VM600 MPC4 Machinery Protection Card is the sentinel that stands between normal operation and disaster, continuously monitoring shaft vibration, position, and dynamic signals to trigger protective action before damage occurs.
Within the VM600 modular protection system, the MPC4 (Part No. 200-510-071-113) occupies the role of the primary signal processing and protection card, capable of handling up to four independent measurement channels simultaneously. The VM600 platform is recognized globally as one of the most trusted machinery protection architectures in the turbomachinery and power generation industries, deployed in refineries, LNG plants, offshore platforms, and power stations across more than 80 countries. The MPC4 card represents the processing core of this system — where raw transducer signals are converted into actionable protection decisions in real time.
